After a 4-8 season, the Buffs have emerged as one of the nation\u2019s top programs, finishing the regular season with a 9-3 record that has them ranked 23rd in the country.<\/p>\n<p>Sanders faces a tough task in 2025, however, with son Shedeur Sanders (the starting quarterback) and two-way superstar Travis Hunter set to leave for the NFL. Both are projected to be top-three picks in next year\u2019s draft.<\/p>\n<p>So with Shedeur and Travis set to move on, could \u2018Prime Time\u2019 be enticed by the opportunity to leave the Buffaloes for an NFL team?

To Pierce\u2019s credit, his team showed resolve in last week\u2019s loss to the Chiefs. It was positioned to win the game with a field goal before a crushing botched snap resulted in a fumble.<\/p>\n<p>The belief among many in the league is that Tom Brady, now a minority owner of the Raiders, will have some level of influence over major decisions, and team owner Mark Davis will covet his knowledge and insight. If Brady is looking for a fellow GOAT, Sanders has a compelling case as the best cornerback in NFL history.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">I have it on good authority the Vegas Raiders are deliberately tanking the season to ensure they Draft Shedeur Sanders #1 and bring in Deion Sanders as Head Coach.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 JD Sharp (@imjdsharp) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/imjdsharp\/status\/1864031187011764711?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 3, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>One AFC executive also told Fowler the following about Deion Sanders potentially joining\u00a0<a class=\"mai-link-injected\" href=\"https:\/\/www.totalprosports.com\/tag\/tom-brady\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tom Brady<\/a>\u2019s Raiders:<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-group mai-link-exclude has-alt-background-color has-background has-light-background has-xs-padding-top has-xs-padding-bottom has-sm-padding-left has-sm-padding-right has-xl-margin-top has-xl-margin-bottom\" data-content-name=\"Google News Follow Us\" data-track-content=\"\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cIf there\u2019s one fit, it\u2019s Vegas because of the culture there and the bright [Vegas] lights and Davis\u2019 willingness to do something different.
